Pioneer Woman Mississippi Roast Recipe
This roast is loaded with juicy, tender meat and a rich, buttery sauce that comes together with almost no effort.The key is the pepperoncini—they break down into the sauce and add just the right amount of tang to balance out the richness.A slow cooker is ideal, but if you’re short on time, the oven works just as well at a low temperature.What makes this recipe stand out is how the butter, ranch seasoning, and pepperoncini combine to create a sauce that’s thick, savory, and absolutely packed with flavor.To keep the roast from drying out, use chuck roast. It has the right amount of fat to stay juicy while cooking low and slow!
